All My Heart

Fasting day 3

People always complain that God doesn't answer prayers fast, and we give all manner of excuses why our prayers are delayed. But the Bible says that the standard of God stands sure and the Lord knows those who are his. In a place of prayer there are biblical principles that bring answers to a searching heart. First the Lord gave conditions for finding Him, because when you find him you can expect answers. The first principle is found in the book of ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29:13‬ and it says “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” If we can silence the distractions and pour our hearts to God we will never complain about unanswered prayers. The Psalmist reach that state of pouring out all his heart and he says in the book of Psalm‬ ‭119:58‬ ‭ “I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: Be merciful unto me according to thy word.'' The word whole heart means he knew his state of mind at the time. Imagine praying until you come to self awareness that your heart is totally focused on God. And you surely know it by yourself. That's the level the Psalmist was, and that's the stage we should be anytime we hit our knees on the ground to pray. I know the devil always brings different things to distract us whenever we pray, but we must filter our thoughts and imaginations in order to achieve a singleness of mind which grants us unrestricted access to the Father.


Prayer points

1 Oh Lord I take captive every thought and imaginations that distracts me in your presence

2 dear heavenly Father filter my mind with your word and give me the grace to do your will

3 I curse every spirit of distractions in and around me in the mighty name of Jesus Christ

Amen
